Kurt Adler Star Wars 17-Inch Plush Yoda Santa Hat with Bendable Ears

Plush Yoda Santa Hat with Bendable Ears

There you are, off to the Christmas party, and the weight of tradition demands a festive hat. Reindeer antlers? Bauble bopper headband? Elf ears?

No! You have geek credentials to maintain here! Have a few standards, please!

It's a Santa Hat with Yoda Ears all the way. It couldn't possibly be anything else, if you search your soul and use the Force for answers. Bendable Yoda ears, in festive head attire. Nothing else will do.

Kurt Adler Star Wars Inspired Nutcrackers

Because what else are you going to use to crack those post-dinner nuts?

Star Wars Nutcrackers

Kurt S. Adler is really on a roll this Christmas. His company has brought out more Star Wars inspired festive sundries than even I thought was possible.

Yet this lot take the walnut. They really do. And the brazil nuts, the hazelnuts, the almonds, pecans and chestnuts too. They crack the whole lot open, for that handy munchie fest in front of the television.

Ranging from 7" high (R2D2) to 11" (Stormtrooper), these look good as standing ornaments, though with that practical and useful side to them too. The consensus is that they all look better than in the pictures.

It's not just those highlighted above in the Star Wars collection. You can get Yoda and a Clone Trooper too. No doubt more are on the way!

Star Wars Christmas Quilt Cover Square

What happened when the Magi bumped into a Jedi Master on the way to see Jesus?

Well, apparently no-one checked for a wormhole, time machine or any other appliance that would allow this to occur. Instead they all posed for Tim Elliot to draw a cartoon marking the occasion.

When you think about it, the Jedi really do quite look like the Three Wise Men. At least they do as they're most commonly rendered.

Now you too can place Jedi at the Nativity on your Christmas quilt. Now all that you have to do is establish a tradition of sewing a Christmas quilt.

Three different Yoda stockings exist to hang from your bed or mantlepiece. Each awaiting a visit from Father Christmas with some lovely intergalactic gifts.

The first of them is the one which boasts all of the bells and whistles, or, to be precise, a button to press for Yoda voice messages.

That randomly chooses from the following famous phrases: "Use the force", "Do or do not, there is no try", and "Judge me by my size do you?"

It is topped by a plastic Yoda head, while the plush stocking itself is 22" long and 7" wide. That would do for me. Thanks!

(As an alternative, there's the Darth Vader Christmas stocking from the same company.)

The second is a Yoda head Christmas stocking based on Star Wars: The Clone Wars. But with very little information for me to tell you about it. Which is pretty much everything I could also say about the third!
